Sam & Becky, from the safety of their home, welcome remote guest host Shujin Tribble as they contemplate parody ceremonies for cats, criticize craft store antics, and say bye (finally?) to the saga of Coach Joe Kennedy. Also: hotdogs.

Dave facilitates a discussion between Sam and his father, Sam Sr., who’s visiting from out of town.  Topics range from mid-west talk show history, Ed Wood films, pizza, public art, Chicago, travel, automobiles, and Mulvey family history.   In short, this is Ask an Atheist with Sam Mulvey, with Sam Mulvey.

Becky, Dan, and Josh express alarm regarding assumed entitlement to butts and tabernacles, governmental hand-waving around antisemitism, and religiously-tinged nationality tests in the US and India. Dan clarifies fish grunts for Sam, and we hear from a magnanimous fan in New Zealand.

Sam’s back from a week at Camp Quest Northwest and is excited to talk to Tom and Meredith about everything he missed! Turns out, not much has changed. Jesus is still everywhere and Trump still has the Best Words.

Becky, Jeremy, and Meredith discuss Trump’s response to NFL protests, his lack of geography knowledge, the apocalypse that didn’t happen, and weird goop.
